You might also want to let the graphics guys know this is 2010 and we have some pretty sophisticated computer programs for designers. That thing looks like it would be home in the Tron movie from the '80's.

The Sports Day logo is also left wanting...

I take that back, on second look, Tron technology circa 1980 would be a step up.

I agree. On the other hand, the SMU banner looks less terrible than some of the other colleges'.

That pony is the color that the state uses on the myplates SMU plate. PINK!
SMU's first president, Robert S. Hyer, selected Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as SMU's colors to symbolize SMU's high academic standards. We are one of the few Universities to have school colors with real meaning...and we just blow them off.

I like this statement in the article:

SMU will also now use the NCAA's method of calculating grade point average instead of its own standards.

HA!

You'd think if someone was gonna use the phoney pony, they would have found a less horrendously pixellated jpg and done a better job with the opacity on KP's pic. That whole banner is almost a candidate for PsD.
Don't worry. Be Happy. Or not.
